Steve, i have a question regarding the calculation of the internal resistance of a battery. You state to calculate it from VD and peak in-rush current. This does not consider internal starter resistance nor the wiring resistance. Are these judged to be negligible even with such low resistance levels...

You may find the attached document informative....

Thank you Ben, this is great information.

This, most probably, should be a generator and not an alternator....can you confirm this? If it is a generator it won't feature a rectifier because it'll output DC. A wiring diagram will be very helpful.... Generally on these kind of generators the voltage is induced into the rotor and the charging ...
